Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts
Tires and wheels are a very important and critical compo-
nents of the trailer. When specifying or replacing the trailer
wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle are properly
matched.
Tires Wear/Inflation Grease Fittings (Zerk) Maintenance (Electric Motor)
1. There are two grease (Figure 33) fittings at each end of
the electric motor that will require lubrication. Lubricate
these fittings about every 16 months.
2. Use Poleyrex EM (Exxon Mobil) or equalivant lubricant.
Clean grease fitting, apply grease gun to fitting (1/2 shot).
Remember too much grease or injecting grease too
quickly can cause premature bearing failure. Slowly apply
the recommended amount of grease, taking a miniute or
so to apply.

Table 9 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the
causes and solutions of tire wear problems.
Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire
life. Pressure should be checked cold before operation.
DO
NOT bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check inflation
pressure weekly during use to insure maximum tire life and
tread wear.
DO NOT attempt to repair or modify
a wheel. DO NOT install an inter-tube
to correct a leak through the rim. If
the rim is cracked, the air pressure in
the inter-tube may cause pieces of the rim to explode
(break-off) with great force and can cause serious eye
or bodily injury.
WARNING Damaged Wheels
AlWAyS wear safety glasses when
removing or installing force fitted
parts. Failure to comply may result in
serious injury.
